### 4/5 — Good

*2023-02-19, version 1.0.204571*

I like the service but wish it was available through all of delivery companies! Also have bean disappointed a couple times!! Order was supposed to be delivered in garage and was left on porch! At edge of steps in plain sight!

### 4/5 — Give us blink camera support

*2023-01-10, version 1.0.204571*

I had a cloud cam until the service was discontinued.  The replacement blink camera I was given still doesn’t have support in the key app.  Please add support for blink cameras for those of us former cloud cam users.

### 3/5 — Pleas fix issues

*2022-07-06, version 1.0.204517.0*

Whenever adding/ removing guests from the household, it freezes on the saving/deleting screen. I have to close the app and open again to see if the changes I made actually saved. Sometimes I have to go through this process multiple times to get the person added. If these issues were fixed, the app would be great!

### 4/5 — Works well but annoying bug

*2022-05-13, version 1.0.204506*

Everything works very well, but if you have an item which was lost or canceled before delivery, it gets stuck in the delayed stayed indefinitely at the top of the list. I now have about 8 items there which won't go away, and it's just been growing over time.

Please fix and I'll update my review! Otherwise it's a great app

### 3/5 — Please fix this!

*2022-02-24, version 1.0.204416*

This app would be my favorite thing ever - if you would fix it. Every time I add or remove someone from the household and click save, it locks up on “Saving…” so that I have to close the app completely. Then I have to reopen again it to see if my change actually saved.  I am constantly adding and removing guests to my household so I need this feature to work better please. I have an iPhone SE 2nd Gen. Thanks.

### 3/5 — Multiple names

*2021-12-27, version 1.0.204416*

It’s a cool feature but it doesn’t help much when there is three people in my household that use the same account and only one name is “approved” for key delivery. I wish all three of us could use key delivery. Doesn’t make sense for my orders to go in garage and their orders go to the front door.

### 5/5 — Package delivery

*2021-10-25, version 1.0.204348*

I’m a senior citizen, 72 years young , I wish my mother could have seen this technology, I’m thankful to all the young people who are using their brains to make life easier and safer, go for it, use the brains God has given you,  thanks

### 5/5 — Highly recommend!

*2021-10-03, version 1.0.204348*

Safe and secure delivery. 
Love my Liftmaster garage door opener with smartphone technology and back up battery.
With the recent storms it’s a comfort to know we can drive into the garage regardless of the weather.

### 4/5 — Where to place items bought.

*2021-09-22, version 1.0.204348*

There is a card table in the front an center for purchased products to be left.
Not a big deal, leaving it on the floor but as the driver will attest to I have a very busy garage meaning it is a bit of a mess with so many projects going on…!
           Thank you.  Jerry

### 5/5 — It works!

*2021-09-15, version 1.0.204348*

Love the fact that I can comfortably place an order and it be delivered safely in my garage. With my family busy schedule, it’s not all the time that we are home when deliveries arrive thus my package is safe within my garage.

### 5/5 — Kay garage door opener

*2021-09-01, version 1.0.204348*

The garage door opener responds to my car to my iPhone and never misses a beat. IsMuch better than my previous opener. Open and closes reliably with both my car and the iPhone and I receive a message on my iPhone give me the status. much better than the device that I had previously. 
well worth installing

### 4/5 — Inconsistency

*2021-07-23, version 1.0.204300*

I always get an alert when a package is arriving.  Lately almost half my packages are placed on my front porch because the driver was “unable to access Key”.  I have had 2 deliveries in the same day and one was placed in my garage and the other on the porch.

### 4/5 — Almost perfect

*2021-06-26, version 1.0.204285*

App (and MyQ) is easy to set up. 

Unfortunately Key is not available for Subscribe & Save items.  Also not available to household member even though we’re at the same address and would use the same access😠.

### 5/5 — Love Key delivery

*2021-06-16, version 1.0.204250*

We have been thrilled with the key delivery. In this day and age of so much theft, it is a big relief to know that we can trust the safety of our deliveries. And it’s wonderful not to feel like we need to rush home or bother neighbors or family to pick up.

### 4/5 — Confused

*2021-06-16, version 1.0.204250*

Your description says “you can choose Key Secure delivery at checkout” but I did not choose it. Is there a default setting that I can change? Most of my packages don’t need to be delivered in key secure location.

### 5/5 — Great Feature

*2021-06-12, version 1.0.204250*

Having the ability to allow packages delivered into your garage is genius. It’s super convenient and you don’t have to worry about your package sitting on the porch exposed to thieves.

### 5/5 — Great service

*2021-04-23, version 1.0.204226*

Have used this several times. Worked well each time. Raining today but my package stayed dry and secure. Lots of porch pirates in our neighborhood but I don’t have to worry about them.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — No customer support and drivers don’t deliver consistently

*2021-05-03, version 1.0.204250*

I’ve selected the last 6 or so deliveries to be completed using the Key delivery method where the driver should be dropping the package off inside my garage which happens to be in the back of my home. Inevitably, I see the drivers just drive to the front of my house and walk to my front porch and just report that Key wasn’t working properly. There have been times where I’ve purposefully left the garage door open and they don’t even pretend to check. 

Upon researching how to file a complaint on the website, the instructions just direct you to reach out to customer support via the Key app, which conveniently is a blank screen right now. 

As someone else put it, it’s a great idea but it’s only as good as the delivery drivers who honor it.

### 1/5 — Beware

*2021-04-13, version 1.0.204226*

I had a delivery today that is unrecorded in my order status. It was a dupe delivery. In effect, the driver entered our home with no record of his entry. My security system recorded it. I got no email indicating the delivery had been made. I am trying to turn the key delivery off. They have made it really hard. I have to download this app to do it. I have lost trust. When I communicated all the details to customer service I was told “we will work hard to mitigate these mishaps.”

### 1/5 — Very annoying

*2021-04-11, version 1.0.204226*

Every time I open the app it says offline. Every time. I have to set up the whole thing again just to get it working. Every time. What if I’m away and needed to open or lock the house for a family member I can’t do it remotely because this app is useless and does not work. Offline every time I try to use it. I give up. I’m not going to do a set up process every time I want to use it. Useless.

### 1/5 — App is only as good as the drivers

*2021-03-06, version 1.0.204226*

This is a great concept. But the concept only works if drivers are willing to take an extra 30 seconds to actually use the feature. Out of 10 “Key” deliveries, maybe 1 will actually be delivered via Key. Drivers must view it as a hassle and simply bypass it by marking that they couldn’t use the feature when they don’t even try. Much easier to just run them to the unprotected porch and run back to their van. On top of these issues, the Key support team is useless. They simply apologize and offer no further support or remuneration for your time and expense investing in this tool. Proceed at your own risk.

### 1/5 — big security issues

*2020-07-14, version 1.0.203837*

the app seemed promising. although this just happened.

an item was delivered into the garage, yet the key app said it was delivered to my doorstep. there were no notifications about my garage door being opened and closed by the driver. this is a huge security issue. i only saw the item inside the garage - and my security camera saw the garage door open and close. these are the only ways i knew someone had been in the garage. i’m extremely unhappy about this.

why should the key app tell me all about when we open/close our garage - yet when, more importantly, a delivery person has accessed the garage it tells you NOTHING.

### 1/5 — Useable

*2019-10-15, version 1.0.202051*

This app is wholly unusable. I sent up my lock with the app from the lock manufacturer and it worked perfectly with Alexa. Then I attempted to use the key app and the cloud camera. Holy smokes! I could get the lock recognized and not the cloud camera, once the camera was recognized the key app couldn’t recognize the lock. Meanwhile my Alexa app sees the lock and the camera. After linking and resetting my lock three times (which meant resetting all my codes) I quit.

### 2/5 — Car delivery

*2021-06-22, version 1.0.204250*

I’d love to be able to take advantage of this… but apparently you still can have packages placed in your trunk because of covid. Covid has subsided rather significantly as of late and mask mandates are disappearing. On top of that, I cannot remotely fathom how there’s more, or any, risk of getting covid by putting a package in the trunk of a car, versus inside someone’s residence… Any degree of logic would suggest that it’d be the other way around. Trunk delivery preferred and in-door delivery suspended. Nevertheless, any idea when this will be changed?

### 2/5 — The app is terrible. The lock is great. Can’t use the lock without the app.

*2019-08-29, version 1.0.201859*

This whole system is super buggy. The lock needs the camera to work. The camera has a crappy WiFi dongle. The app itself can’t lock in new door codes because of the bad connectivity. Terrible system. Definitely don’t rely on this for your front door of your vacation rental property.

### 2/5 — Offline Messages

*2019-05-25, version 1.0.201499*

This sounded like a great idea, having been out of town when packages were delivered in the past. Downloaded the app and linked to the MyQ garage easily. Problem started within the first hour with “Your MyQ is offline” messages. We have never had an offline issue and when I checked it was fine. This went on throughout the evening and today. Disabled notifications and eventually just unlinked it. Currently a waste of time

### 2/5 — Good app with limited functionality

*2019-02-03, version 1.0.201149*

The app works great, but it would be nice if you could have your lock set to unlock/unlock when you are within a certain proximity of the door like the August lock and others. It would also be great if you could give people access to unlock the door through the app opposed to them needing to enter a combo at the door.

### 5/5 — Never worry about porch pirates!

*2023-08-16*

Not only do you not have to worry about porch Pirates stealing your packages, if you’re traveling and something gets delivered, it’s not sitting on your porch for days! This is an amazing service, I highly recommend it. We actually changed her garage door opener so we could get these key deliveries.

### 5/5 — Awesome convenience and functionality with security!

*2022-05-14, version 1.0.204506*

In the beginning the service was a bit glitchy. But now they have completely ironed out the problems. It works flawlessly every time! I receive 2 to 3 in garage deliveries every week and never have a problem! It’s pretty cool to see the package delivered on camera,

### 5/5 — Wow!

*2022-03-13, version 1.0.204416*

This new key service is amazing. No more worrying about package thieves or misdelivered items.  Our first experience today exceeded expectation!  The driver not only delivered the package to our garage but carried it to the inside landing where we easily retrieved it just outside our kitchen door.  This service offers the security I’ve only dreamed about.  It ends the stress when we can’t be home to receive a delivery.

### 5/5 — In garge delivery went very well

*2022-03-02, version 1.0.204416*

This was my 1st in-garage delivery and I love it... All aspects, garage door opening, the package was placed in a very good location, the video and sound recording was perfect and the closing of the garage door was accomplished, all in a timely manner.... Thanks !!!!!!!

### 5/5 — Secure and safe delivery option

*2022-02-04, version 1.0.204416*

I love this delivery way because first is very secure and always all my package is safely of weather and also easy way to pick up.

### 5/5 — Key Delivery is FANTASTIC

*2022-01-24, version 1.0.204416*

Have been enjoying Key Delivery for several months and find it to be fantastic. 

Since I have personally experienced “porch pirate” theft, I very much appreciate the security of Key Delivery. 

I am notified several minutes in advance of a delivery and at the time of delivery. I am able to monitor the delivery with Ring security cams. 

A PERFECT solution! 

Question: How do I remove “Delayed” notices in the Key application? The package has been delivered, but the “Delayed” notice is still displayed. 

Thanks for the GREAT KEY DELIVERY service, and the Key Application.

### 5/5 — History Erase

*2022-01-02, version 1.0.204416*

I would love it if they would allow you to erase the history of all deliveries and the opening and closing in one swipe. Instead of having to go back into each one individually. Otherwise a very good app

### 5/5 — Key delivery

*2021-12-31, version 1.0.204416*

I reside in a neighborhood where petty robbery such as packages car being broken into things of that sort. Key delivery is the  most secure delivery ever thought of. My amazing item was delivered inside my garage. I was alerted by key and my camera instantly came up on my phone

### 5/5 — Love this

*2021-12-13, version 1.0.204399*

I love this service. Don’t have to worry about items being stolen from porch, under mat, yard or driveway anymore. No more hassles of leaving work earlier to catch a delivery or missing lunch. Packages are placed in plain site and nothing is ever disturbed in my garage. Peace of mind!!

### 5/5 — Great option to receive packages

*2021-12-01, version 1.0.204399*

I was a little bit reluctant to tie in the garage door to the WiFi to gravy access to thirds while I’m away. Actually is a great option that keeps your package safe from weather and avoid stealing.
